There is no snobbery involved at all and the organisers have to deal with the whims etc of the Mostyn's who own a lot of Llandudno and the local council who have some strange ideas at times that the organisers have to abide by or the show will not happen. The engine choice is based on a selection of different types rather than too many of the same.
Some engine owners will never get an invite no matter what they own, as they or their crew/family will have done something at llandudno to piss the organisers off at some time in the past, it could be as simple as not turning up and not bothering to call and say that they cant be there(that was found out by a phone call from me on the Saturday morning to ask what time they were arriving as time was getting close to the start time), or they could have been abusive to the organisers or officials.
